Here Is Our Usual Cost / Fee / Donation:

For our Services as Wedding Officiants Only

If you choose either of us as your wedding officiant, we suggest the following donation for our services:

At a professional wedding facility
$295 + travel costs

Beach, park, home, back yard, et cetera
$250 + travel costs

Travel Costs as Wedding Officiants Only

Travel costs are figured at two dollars per mile from our home in the Canoga Park (San Fernando Valley) to you wedding location and back. We use Google map services to determine distances. Here are two examples:

** To officiate a wedding for a bride and groom at the Malibu Lake club in Agoura, the travel costs are $76.

** To officiate a wedding for a bride and groom at private home in Culver City, the travel costs are $92.

If You Come to Us:

If you would like to come to our home for a simple legal marriage,
the minimum suggested donation is $125.

You bring your spouse, your marriage license and up to seven witnesses. We will officiate an actual wedding ceremony, or we can simply ask the legally-require questions and then sign the marriage license.

A Few Things to Consider:

If price is the major or the only consideration in hiring your wedding officiant, you're throwing away a big piece of your wedding day.

All of our services are offered on a donation basis.

No one is ever turned away for lack of money.

Our goal is to be reasonable in price and at the same time honor the value of our professional services.

Do Yourself a Favor:

Before you make any final decision about who your officiant will be,
please consider the following truths.

You get what you pay for. Symbolically speaking, The city bus and a chauffeur-driven limousine ' can both get you to your wedding site.

Your ceremony is the heart and soul of your wedding day.

If you are spending tens of thousands of dollars on your wedding celebration, don't cheat yourself by hiring the cheapest officiant you can find. That's like offering your wedding guests a bag lunch from McDonald's. It also dishonors the essence of your relationship.

If you have a limited budget,` that's something else entirely. We will gladly officiate your wedding, regardless of how limited your budget is, BUT. . .

Please don't ask us to cut our service dollars to accommodate a little extra foo foo at your wedding celebration.

To those who honor their marriage celebration and the union it represents, we say "Thank you. Welcome to our website. How may we be of service to you?"

u Limited Budget Lack Of Money:

Here are just two examples:

We officiated a wedding under the tree in our front yard for a "starving actor" and his bride. They gave us a thirty-dollar check and one dollar in cash. And their check bounced. It took them about three months to do so, but they managed to come up with the thirty dollars. We were also asked to and we agreed to officiate a wedding at zero cost to the couple in a hospital where the groom was dying of AIDS. Unfortunately, the groom died before the ceremony could be performed.

If you are having a public celebration and renting a wedding site, we generally do not consider that as a lack of money situation. If you have a wedding budget of $5,000 of more, we suggest that you examine your priorities and decide what is most important, a high quality, meaningful and memorable ceremony or spending the money on other things that wedding advertising has convinced you are necessary.

We occasionally officiate wedding ceremonies for donations less than our suggested donation, and each time, the couple's needs and requirements are given primary and full consideration. Each time we also suggest to the couple that they, in turn, assist someone else in need. (This is similar to the concept focused on in the film, "Pay It Forward," staring Kevin Spacey.

If on the other hand, you simply choose to spend your money on other things, please see the section below.

u If That's your mind set, then create your own minister:

For $20 sent to the Universal Life Church in Modesto, California, you can have your brother or your cousin become a minister and, at you wedding, say, "Bride, do you want to marry Groom? Groom, do you want to marry Bride? OK, you're married."

Then he/she can sign the license, and it's just as legal as if the Roman Catholic Pope officiated your wedding. Just don't expect tears of joy or rave reviews from your guests.

We've also noticed a strong correlation between the value a couple places on their wedding ceremony and the value they place on their marriage.
